I can complete understand why. The boy CAN'T keep still.

Which is kind of odd, considering we all try to teach them to eat using that spoon way before we offer a fork. <br /><br />Kid-sized forks with less-than-sharp tines (let me know if Nancy will be back down in Portland anytime soon because we have a bunch that E has outgrown!) are just *so* much easier for the little ones to actually succeed at getting food from plate to mouth. <br /><br />We only made that discovery when we visited family in Boulder who automatically put out the kid forks their tweens had long ago outgrown at mealtimes. <br /><br />As with all unsolicited advice from folks you've never met, feel free to cheerfully disregard. :-)Avivahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16411667763810131618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5407789375123986094.post-90730612417044934172011-01-13T11:23:33.779-08:002011-01-13T11:23:33.779-08:00clementine had a strong thing for elmo, too, befor...clementine had a strong thing for elmo, too, before moving on to barney, who was at the top of his fame then.ALittleGuitarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00042890087015084321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5407789375123986094.post-9956850905605575412010-12-22T18:58:57.181-08:002010-12-22T18:58:57.181-08:00Christina -- be careful w/ 'clementine.' w...Christina -- be careful w/ 'clementine.' when she hits middle school she too might decide to go by 'clem.'
